1t is expected that there will be q large delega-
ton from the Department OF the Potomac at the
annual encampment Of the G. A. R, in st. Louis,
In september. The g. A. r. men will probably go
as the Department OF the Potomac and not a.
separate posts. Any post that goes as such will
go as the escort OF the department commander.

hold their encampment there. Then the Hen

leans La, says: On Saturday evening last re-
specfable-looking middle-aged woman whose neat
appearance in dress was in striking contrast TO q
black and swollen eye, appeared In the United
states district attorneys ONCE. She gave her
name as Mrs. Hudson, postmaster az Clio Tangf-
PIANO Parish, La, and unfoided revolving story OF
assault and brutality. Two days before four armed
men entered the cross roads store In which the
after some angry blackguardism, struck her over
the eye with heavy club, Telling her TO the
moor, stamping upon her breast and perpetrating
other tndignltes. In the meantime two others, one
with revolver and the other with q dirk seized
ner grown-up son, threatening him with assassin
alton II he attempted TO interfere She was finally
allowed TO escape and lied to the yard, where she
hid herself In an clubhouse, while the four bSutes
exercised themselves In the most violent and
vicious abuse OF her son. They LETT with the
penalty.
Upon the night following the assault the woman
hired colored man TO take her In q boat down the
I'angipaho River SO miles TO Manchac bridge, on
the Illinois Central Railroad, whence she came TO
New Orleans. She exhibited q letter from her son
recountfng the story OF the assault and giving the
names OF the four men who had perpetrated Il.
These names the Officers OF the court refuse to d.
vuige The woman says her husband was CON-
now In South America The present trouble arose
some Time ago. Young Hudson was postmaster &C

Fort Myer to be Turned Into q Cav.
airy Post,

1t was decided to-day that two companies OF
cavalry shall be permanently stationed at Fort
Myer. 1t has not yet been settled what COM
pan1es shall be ordered there nor when, but the
much vexed question Of what use to make OF Fort
Myer has been definitely settled. The fort has re-
NAMED idle since it was abandoned last summer
as school of instruction for the Signal Service,
but has been occupied by few soldiers from the
washington barracks for the purpose OF protecting
the property. The Secretary Of War was for q
long time undecided as to what use to make of the
post.
Gen. Sheridan strongly recommended that the
capital OF the nation should be provided with
airy In order that that branch OF the service
should be represented in the many parades
ana omclal ceremonies that are apt to take place
here. Others, however, were in favor Of
making Fort Niger into an artillery
SchOOl, and 1t was not until to-
Gay That the question was finally decided in
favor OF cavalry. While nothing further has
been determined upon, it is but natural to sup
pose that Major JAS. Biddle, Of the 9th cavalry,
who was appointed commandment OF the post
under the present administration and served but
snort time before it was abandoned will be again
stationed there under the new arrangements, and
Will be placed in command OF couple OF cOmpa-
MES OF his regiment, which will probably be
brought from Colorado This, however, is only
conjecture.

The Box Elder Shade Trees.

Inc BOX Elder Shade Trees.
AGAIN INFESTED BY TENT WORMS AND CATERPII~
LARS.
Geo. A. Sawyer, Of No. 144O Massachusetts, ave-
nue. northwest, writes the Commissioners that
some OF the trees 18th street and probably else
where are infested with the tent worms. He states
that they are now about u to u inch in length,
and that an effort was made during the winter to
remove the cocoons, but some few evidently es-
Sawyer expresses the opinion that the box elders
planted on 10Th, L, and streets are entirely un-
suitable and unsatisfactory as shade trees for the
reason that the wood is soft and pithy and the
tree consequently suffers more from wind storms
and disease than any other kind which he has OBJ
served. 1t Is peculiarly subject, he writes to the
attacks OF insects, which do not destroy it, but
make 1t look sickly and unwhOlesOme The odor
from freshly-cut branch Is rank and dtsagreeable
Its only seeming good quality, Mt. sawyer thinks,
is very rapid growth, but in his opinion it is its
greatest evil for 1t is like any other noxOus thing
more difficult OF eradication with each season 81
development.
Another complaint comes from the northwest
but this time 1T Is the caterpillars which are
the immediate cause OF 1t. Mr.. Geo. Sltgreaves
who lives on street, between 18th and 18th
streets, has written to the Commissioners some
strong language about the pest. He says that 1t
mas oeen his intention for some months past to ask
that these trees may be cut down altogether In
the autumn, and he has only waited to see the
erect OF removing the coc0ons early in the spring
just past In spite OF this, the trees again full
OF webs, and he says that he has no
gated nuisance. "They drop their leaves from the
time they first put them FORTH and keep the street
and pavement continually covered" MI. Sitgreaves
thinks that they are poor Shadetrees and requests
or else that permission be granted residents Of n
street to plant Others

special to the Philadelphia Press nom Con-
cord. n. H., last night, says: The republican men,
bers OF the legislature met at Ph9nix Han this
afternoon. In response TO q call for conference as
TO the adv1sability OF the election OF senator for
the term beginning In March, 1889. senator o. d.
Sawyer stated that they would not take action that
should bind anybody. VIM. p. Mason, OF Dover,
argued that II was the duty OF this fegfs-
lature 70 elect for both the short and the long
term bastng his arguments on the opinion
OF the Judges OF the Supreme Court OF
New Hampshire, and on the position taken BY
leaaing members OF the United states Senate.
u G Moore, OF Nashua claimed that the Con-
stltutlon prescribes that the legislature chosen
next 70 the time when Senator's term expires
sha1l elect his successor. In the cases OF Charles
d. Ben and Henry w. Blair, appointed Senators oy
Governors Prescott and Hale, the senate had de-
cided that the New Hampshire legislature had
Done right. These were the only precedents 70
guide the members Of this legislature. AZ the
close OF Moore's speech the opinion given By the
supreme Court IN New Hampshire in lisa and the

WHAT COMMODORE SICARD SAYS ABOUT IT.
Notwithstanding the official denialS about the
destruction OF ten-1nch gun at the Washington
navy-yard, the report is reiterated from the yard
that one OF the finishing tools broke OF in the tube
and that the gun will prove q total loss, amount
ing to at least $4,000. Commodore sicard, Chief
OF the Bureau or ordnance, when asked about the
matter to-day, said that there was slight acct
dent to the gun, which resulted in very little dam
age. While smoothing off the interior surface OF
the tube the tool used for the purpose, called a
reamer, broke in the gun. Before the machinery
could be stopped the broken tool had LETT its track
around the surface about twentieth Of an inch
deep. Commodore Sicard added that the Slight
damage will be repaired by cutting the tube one
twentieth OF an inch deeper than was at first in
tended The gun will be in no way impaired, he
said, and the cost OF the accident will be only the
labor necessary to perform the additional cutting
